May 6, 2026“What Happens Now,” like “Parking Lot Dreams,” is a lovely pre-dawn sigh, her [Feist] unanswered questions bathed in fuzz and chased by muted drums. This sleepier mode might require patience here and there, but Broken Social Scene balance out the mood board with a handful of their churning, punchy rockers.

May 4, 2026Throughout, a balance of reflection and celebration is finely struck: while Feist-sung elegy What Happens Now is a tender beauty, Paying For Your Love blasts off like an indie E Street Band in full flow. [May 2026, p.101]
